ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATION

Between the Scanner and the Access Point Device To establish communication between the scanner and access point device: 1. Connect the access point device to the host system (see pages 5 - 6).

2. Scan the address bar code on the access point device to establish a communication connection between the scanner and the access point device.

Figure 10. Address Bar Code

3. If successful, the scanner will respond with two beeps and the LED's on both the scanner and access point device will stop flashing.

Important Note: The communication link between the scanner and the access point device is determined by the last address code scanned.

ACCESS POINT DEVICE OPERATION

Page/Disconnect Button The access point has a button located on the top of the device that can be used to either page the scanner or disconnect the communication link between the scanner and the access point.

Figure 11.

The page and disconnect button features are not supported in CodeXML protocol mode. The scanner must be configured for the Metro protocol mode for feature functionality. Refer to page 9 for more information on Metro Protocol Compatibility.

To page the scanner: 1. Press the page button on the top of the access point device. 2. The scanner will start to beep and alternately flash the LEDs. 3. Locate the scanner. 4. Pull the scanner’s trigger or press the page button on the top of the access

point to stop paging.

To disconnect communication: 1. Press and hold down the button on the access point device for

more than 3 seconds. The blue LED on the access point device will start to flash indicating there is no communication link established.

To re-establish communication: 1. Scan the address bar code on access point device with the scanner.

Visual Indicators The page/disconnect button is also the blue LED status indicator (see figure above). The activity of the blue LED reflects the connection, operation and communication status of the access point device.

If the blue LED is:

• not illuminated, the access point device is not receiving power.

• flashing on and off, the access point device is receiving power but does not have a communication link to a scanner.

• always illuminated there is a communication link established between the access point device and a scanner.

After a successful scan, the Blue LED will temporarily turn off while data is being sent to the host system. The LED will turn back on when data transmission is complete.

CONFIGURATION PROCEDURES

The following information is for replacement applications or situations requiring scanner reconfiguration. Some of the configuration procedures require the user to scan the recall defaults bar code. If the recall defaults code is scanned, the scanner’s factory pre-configurations and custom configurations will be lost. The scanner will need to be reconfigured in order to work with the access point device.

Metro Protocol Compatibility By default, the Metro protocol is enabled before the access point device and scanner leave the factory. The protocol supports page/disconnect functions, scanner firmware upgrades through the access point device, and all features supported by the Code XML protocol. When a scanner is using the Metro protocol, configuration data is stored in the access point device. The stored data is automatically sent to the scanner when a communication link is established between the scanner and the access point device. Scanned data and custom configuration settings will be lost if a communication link is not established between the scanner and the access point.

Scanner configuration changes can be done either by scanning configuration bar codes in the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide (MLPN 00-02544x), or with the MetroSet2® program, version 3.2.0.16 or higher.

Metro Protocol Firmware Requirements

Scanner Model and REV Firmware Version FocusBT (A) 40268 or higher FocusBT (B) 40268 or higher Focus BT (F) all versions are compatible

To configure a scanner to use the Metro protocol: 1. Scan the Recall Defaults bar code then the Enable Metro Protocol bar

code.

2. Scan the address bar code located on the top of the access point device (see Figure 11, on page 8) to establish a communication link between the scanner and access point.

3. The scanner will beep and the access point’s blue LED will flash once.

4. The scanner will receive the configuration from the access point device automatically.

CONFIGURATION PROCEDURES

CodeXML Protocol Compatibility The CodeXML protocol does not support page/disconnect button functions, or scanner firmware upgrades through the access point device and Metroset2. When a scanner is using the CodeXML protocol, configuration data is stored in the scanner. The stored data is not transmitted to the access point device. Special configuration steps are required for the customization of system formats and protocols. Instructions on how to configure a scanner in the CodeXML protocol mode via the access point device are outlined on page 11.

CodeXML Firmware Requirements

CONFIGURATION PROCEDURES

Access Point Device Configuration in CodeXML Mode

When a scanner is using the CodeXML protocol all configuration data is stored in the scanner. Since the data is not transmitted to the access point device, the following process is required to configure the device for custom system formats or protocol requirements.

To configure the access point device:

1. Verify a communication link is established between the scanner and access point.

2. Scan the Disable CodeXML Protocol bar code.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at their own expense. Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment could void the user’s authority to operate this device. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver

is connected • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

Notice This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Remarque Cet appareil numérique de classe B est conforme à la norme canadienne NMB-003.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

The radiated output power of this intentional wireless radio is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, which reflect the consensus of the scientific community. The level of energy emitted is far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones. However, the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some situations or environments, such as aboard airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask for authorization before turning on the wireless radio. For more information from the US FCC about exposure to RF energy, see: www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety. For information about the scientific research related to RF energy exposure, see the EMF Research Database maintained by the World Health Organization at: www.who.int/emf.
